Throwing this error when I try download a PPV video in DMs.

C:\Users\ahnad\Downloads\onlyfans_cdmpool>python3 onlyfans_extractor.py --message-id 10820334152156
[*] Fetching dynamic rules…

=========== Message 10820334152156 ===========
[!] OnlyFans API /api2/v2/messages/10820334152156 → HTTP 401: Access denied.

I refreshed my API key and tried the new one in the .json, and I also re-checked that I'd copypasted the cookies in correctly. Not sure what the problem is.

So the first time I ran this tool to do an extraction, I ran into an SSL error. I fixed that by installing the Python package pip-system-certs. Now I get the following output when I try to run the script with only the username defined:
